New School Year, New Habits

If there are any problems in our homeschool, they are caused by me.

I have to face the fact that I am a bit scattered and inconsistent in my own habits, so how can I expect better from the kids.

Seeing as this is my last two years with my near-grown kiddies, I have to do better if I expect them to go into adulthood with good living habits.

So, I have set myself an hourly schedule, starting with me getting up an hour before the kids to exercise and for quiet time.  This is followed by making breakfast, no matter how simple, and getting in some daily exercise.

Starting this morning, I already lost an hour so I didn't exercise or get quiet time.  Even so I feel very refreshed from having a nice breakfast and getting showered and prettied up early.  Now I have a full hour to dedicate to blogging before I have to start writing articles (to earn the Benjamins).

My other scheduled items for the day are two 3-hour blocks for working and time to make dinner and do some housekeeping.

Remember, kids will only do what they see us doing.  We can talk until we are blue in the face, but actions speak louder than words.
